BHF-177
BHF-177 is a drug that is used in scientific research. It is a GABAB receptor antagonist, which means it blocks the action of the GABAB receptor. This receptor is a type of G protein-coupled receptor that is found in the central nervous system and plays a role in inhibitory neurotransmission.
Pharmacology[edit | edit source]
BHF-177 is a GABAB receptor antagonist. The GABAB receptor is a type of G protein-coupled receptor that is found in the central nervous system. It is involved in inhibitory neurotransmission, which means it reduces the activity of neurons. By blocking the action of the GABAB receptor, BHF-177 can increase neuronal activity.
Uses[edit | edit source]
BHF-177 is used in scientific research to study the role of the GABAB receptor in the central nervous system. It can be used to investigate the effects of inhibitory neurotransmission and to explore potential treatments for conditions that involve abnormal GABAB receptor activity.
Side Effects[edit | edit source]
As a research drug, BHF-177 is not used in humans and therefore its side effects are not known. However, because it increases neuronal activity, it could potentially cause side effects related to overstimulation of the nervous system.
